KIRA Construction Management LLC, has been awarded a $19M contract for US Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba (NSGB) Port Operations Support Services, CEO Richard Rinehart announced today. This contract has a base year and three option years of performance.

KIRA Construction Management LLC (KIRA) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Tlingit Haida Tribal Business Corporation (THTBC), owned by the largest tribe in Alaska with over 30,000 members. KIRA teamed with MCM, Inc, as their subcontractor for this effort.

“THTBC companies are starting their third new contract within the first four months of 2018.” Rinehart said. “KIRA continues to bring best value services at the lowest prices in the industry with the award of Naval Station Guantanamo Bay Port Operations contract.”

Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba is the oldest overseas military installation. Located in the southeast corner of Cuba, the base supports U.S. Navy and Coast Guard ships, along with allied nation ships operating in the Caribbean area by providing contingency and quality logistical support with superior services and facilities. KIRA and its teaming partner MCM, Inc., will be responsible for a variety of tasks and responsibilities including operation of multiple watercraft, related maintenance services, port operations, and waterfront administration.

THTBC’s family of companies have served the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force and Coast Guard in a myriad of capacities and have received numerous accolades for our services including Army Department of Public Works Contractor of the Year as well as perfect CPAR ratings for three years in a row. Our companies have proven their success on multiple contracts which has led to this second contract award to one of our subsidiaries operating outside of the U.S. KIRA Range Services currently provides Range and Facilities Maintenance for the U.S. Navy’s Atlantic Undersea Test and Evaluation Center (AUTEC) on Andros Island, Bahamas.

KIRA is a tribally-owned small business subsidiary of THTBC with offices in Washington, Colorado, Virginia and Alaska. THTBC acquired KIRA Inc in 2016, a best-in-class base operations support contractor with over 30 years’ experience providing services to the United States Government. THTBC now has over a dozen active subsidiary companies, including KIRA Construction Management LLC, that hold multiple contracts in the United States and abroad.
